Google doodle pays tribute to mother of computer programming Ada Lovelace

Search giant Google on Monday paid tribute to a woman who many consider as the mother of computer programming: Augusta Ada King, a.k.a. Ada Lovelace, with - what else - one of its patented doodles.
Hovering the pointer or mouse over the logo would produce a bubble indicating December 10 would have been Ada Lovelace's 197th birth anniversary.

'In the Google Doodle there is a mathematical formula written in a bubble just above the “G” in Google. There is also a drawing of a woman in the image, which looks a lot like Ada Lovelace. In the doodle there are also symbols of what was considered the first computers to modern day computers like a laptop and iPad or Tab,' said an article on 3d-car-shows.com.

With all the images and the words “Google” written in what looks like a lace type font, I personally think that Google have done a great job today, telling the world about Ada Lovelace and the legacy she left behind!

As in the past, clicking on the doodle would take the visitor to a Google Search Results page for Ada Lovelace.

Ada Lovelace, was mainly known for her work on Charles Babbage's early mechanical computer, the analytical engine.

Her notes on the engine include what is considered the first algorithm for a machine, leading many to consider her the world's first computer programmer.

She also also foresaw the capability of computers to go beyond mere.

    Ada Lovelace's 197th birthday marked by Google doodle

    Ada Lovelace, born Augusta Ada Byron, was an English mathematician and writer widely known for her work on Charles Babbage's early mechanical general-purpose computer, the Analytical Engine. She worked on what is believed to be the first algorithm intended to be processed by a machine, making her the world's first known computer programmer.

    Charles Babbage was an English mathematician, considered to be the father of the computer. He first proposed the use of a mechanical computer in 1822 for computing in the fields of astronomy and mathematics. He received funding from British government to build such a machine in 1823, and spent the next several years trying to build the Difference Engine.

    By the time the government killed the project in 1842, they had given Babbage over ₤17,000, without receiving a working engine. By then, Babbage had moved on to building his more general purpose Analytical Engine, something he first described in 1837.

    The Analytical Engine consisted of an arithmetic logic unit, control flow in the form of conditional branching and loops, and integrated memory, a design that continues to form the backbone of modern-day computers.

    Ada Lovelace met and corresponded with Charles Babbage on many occasions, including socially and in relation to Babbage's Difference Engine and Analytical Engine. Ada became fascinated with his Difference Engine and translated Italian mathematician

    Mathematician and daughter of Lord Byron left legacy as role model for young women entering technology careers.

    Google's latest doodle celebrates the 197th birthday of Ada Lovelace, the 19th century mathematician and daughter of romantic poet Lord Byron.

    Often described as world's first computer programmer, Lovelace showed a keen interst in mathematical studies from an early age and was taught by her mother, Annabella, who was also a gifted mathematician.

    In correspondence with Charles Babbage, who was working on the ideas for a machine that is now recognised as a forerunner of the modern computer, Ada demonstrated her gift for mathematics and was described by him as 'the enchantress of numbers'.

    She was introduced to him by another female scientist famous in her day, the mathematician Mary Somerville, who mentored Ada during her relatively short life.

    Babbage was impressed by the mathematical skills Ada possessed and invited her to translate a piece in Italian written by Luigi Menabrea describing Babbage's 'analytical engine', so that it could be published in England.

    Her notes include what is recognised as the first algorithm intended to be processed by a machine, while she also speculated on its future ability to create graphics and complex music.

    Born in 1815, she had no relationship with her father, who died when she was eight. In 18

    On Ada Lovelace's 197th birthday Google doodles the evolution of computers

    From the first program that Ada Lovelace created for the Analytical Engine to present day laptops and tablet PCs, Google has doodled the evolution of computers on the occasion of the world's first computer programmer's 197th birth anniversary.
    The doodle shows Ada Lovelace writing the pioneering computer program with a quill pen seated on a desk and the paper scroll she is writing her algorithm on twirls in the shape of the letters of the Google logo.
    Ada King, the countess of Lovelace, was born on December 10, 1815 in Piccadilly Terrace, Middlesex, England and was the daughter of the famous poet Lord Byron, but as her parents separated soon after her birth and she did not get to know her father well.
    Her original name was Augusta Ada Byron and on her marriage to William King she became Ada King and later her husband became an earl, she became the countess of Lovelace.
    While she was educated at home by tutors, her mathematical skills were further honed by Augustus De Morgan, the first professor of mathematics at the University of London, who helped her in advanced studies.
    Her association with Charles Babbage, father of the computer, began when she translated an article by Italian mathematician and engineer Luigi Federico on Babbage's proposed Analytical Engine. She not only translated the work but added her notes that were more elaborate and longer than the work she was translating.

    Alan Mathison Turing's 100th birthday: Google pays tribute with a doodle

    Google on Saturday marked the celebrations of the 100th birth anniversary of computer scientist Alan Mathison Turing with an attractive doodle. Turing, who is also known as the founder of computer science, played a significant role in breaking the wartime Enigma- enciphered messages.

    Alan Turing was born in London on 23 June, 1912 and from a very early age he showed deep interest toward science and mathematics. As he grew, Turing showed exceptional ability in solving advanced problems. His innovative mind conducted several test and also worked on the design of the Automatic Computing Engine (ACE). In 1946, he presented a paper which is known as the first elaborate design of a stored-program computer.

    His life is full of achievements and because of this extraordinary work he was appointed Reader in the Mathematics Department at the University of Manchester in 1948. His contribution in mathematics and 'Computing machinery and intelligence' are still considered to be significant work.

    Turing was convicted of his homosexual actions as criminal act in the United Kingdom in 1952. After two years of conviction on 8 June, 1954 he was reported dead due to cyanide poisoning which was believed to be a suicide.
    In 2009, after a campaign the then prime minister of the United Kingdom Gordon Brown issued an apology for Turing's treatment on behalf of the British government.
